Missing snow

As a Canadian, I am used to snow. A lot of snow. I always found the first snow quite magical... and so beautiful! It always was a special day for me. Of course, once Christmas was over, it was getting on my nerves by making everything so difficult! I never actually thought I would ever miss it... But I was wrong as I miss it terribly! Since moving to the UK almost four years ago, I have barely seen snow so on the rare occasions, I made the most of it! Last January, there were quite a few snow days here in Manchester so my husband and I took the opportunity to take some photos. It was the perfect time to wear my lovely vintage hat! (Which my husband nicknamed "Microphone Head")

I really hope to have the chance to enjoy some snow this year as well! It's falling everywhere BUT in Manchester these days...

I know what you mean about the first snowfall being magical. We've had a few light snowfalls already, but nothing too serious (or pretty) as the ground hasn't been cold enough to hold it. As much as I loathe to admit it, I am looking forward to that first magical snowfall and watching it from the cozy indoors ;)

These photos from last winter are lovely. I especially like the first one! Here's hoping you get some of your beloved snow in Manchester soon! Oh, and your ''microphone head'' hat is very cute.

I agree that the first snowfall is magical -- so pretty. Of course, I tire of it quickly when I'm trekking a mile to class in the freezing weather! These photos are gorgeous, though.xo Josiehttp://winksmilestyle.blogspot.com
